Lathrope Leaves For Aldershot

Midfielder Damon Lathrope has today signed a new deal at Aldershot Town having told Torquay that he was rejecting the contract we had put on the table for him.

The 24 year old joined us back in the summer of 2010 having come through Norwich City's youth academy, and in his years with us he went on to make 95 starting appearances for us, with an additional 29 from the bench, but he did fail to score.

Having only made seven appearances in the opening months of last season, he spent time on loan with Hereford, where he made eight appearances during November and early January, before making a further 17 on his return.

His best time with us was probably as part of a three man midfield alongside Eunan O'Kane and Lee Mansell as we reached the League 2 play off semi finals in 2012.
